n
Any valid scalar | string | vector | matrix
Type: double | integer | char | string | logical | struct | cell
Dimension: scalar | string | vector | matrix
m
Any valid scalar | string | vector | matrix
Type: double | integer | char | string | logical | struct | cell
Dimension: scalar | string | vector | matrix

Outputs

Type: double

Example

Common NaN return:

R = 0/0
R = NaN
R = Inf/Inf
R = 0 * Inf
R = NaN
